Need some help please listen

1st of all whom ever decided to put the Roush cold air in the fender....you suck! secondly, I have this rattle that sounds like it is coming from the exhaust somewhere near the back of the motor. This rattle tends to go away under Acceleration. I get a little fuel smell from the exhaust at start up and a little white smoke, I don't seem to be loosing any hp and the car is running fine. I'm thinking heat shield but again I am not sure. I am including a video clip you'll hear the sound. You'll also hear an annoying injector tap to. I call that horsepower waiting to get in. Please give a listen and give advice please!

It sounds like heat shield rattle but then again I've heard a CAT Converter come apart in side and rattle like that.As for the injectors it sounds like they are sticking(dirty).Use some injector cleaner on this. Seafoam is a brand I recommend.This is still really hard to tell buy not being right there to see and hear the car up close.I hope it helps on your finds.

Sounds like it could be an exhaust leak too. Get it on a lift and bang on the exhaust to find a rattle. If you find non, get it on the lift running and listen for an exhaust leak or run your hand close to the exhaust (not touching of course) and feel for a leak.

Take it to Coastal Dyno It's close to you, and have Sam take a look at it for you. He already has a set up to lift the Roushs without damage.
